DO NOT REPLY [Bug 45722] New: mod_userdir doc should hint about making sure /home/* path is searchable by apache user

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45722

           Summary: mod_userdir doc should hint about making sure /home/*
                    path is searchable by apache user
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.8
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_userdir.html
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: temp@marcfearby.com


I'm not an Apache expert, use in infrequently, and rely on the docs quite a
bit. I set up a fresh install and wanted to get UserDir's working, but had to
seek the help from #apache IRC users to find out that I had to "chmod a+x" my
/home/me directory so that I wouldn't get an Access Denied message when trying
to access http://localhost/me/index.html because the "me" permissions were
insufficient.

I think this is a regression, and not specific to UserDirs.
I spent a couple of minutes figuring out I needed to +x my $HOME
as I set my DocumentRoot to a dir there and my error.log just said:

Permission denied: access to / denied

I did a little googling and apparently this used to be the error message:

Permission denied: access to / failed because search permissions are missing on
a component of the path

My apache version is 2.2.11
